Love the blocking. Your body movements look very natural. But the voice is very constricted. You sound a bit like you're enunciating each word a bit too much. Although it is Shakespeare, you should speak with a natural cadence.

Good job!

You read it like a poem, it's not designed for that, read it wiht a natural cadence.

I loved how natural your body was though.

you don't need to put as much emphasis on the rhyming scheme, it makes you sound kind of silly and draws attention away from the actual words you are speaking

kinda goodish... its like spacey and not up to speed. i dunno. it was like you were reading it.

You are good. :) But it's sort of like you're reciting a poem. But you TOTALLY have the facials and the gestures down.

read it like ur heart is beating =]

boom boom boom boom

Your voice sounds like your making sentence fragments with the pausing. If your recitation was more fluid, I think it'd be better. :D

love the facial expressions! more body language as well. I've played Helena 14 times...hah! She is so much more interesting(nay, even fairer!)than Hermia!

wtf... u need to move around your arms are too stiff.. you need to work on movement and you sound too robotic.. u need to analyze and kinda work on her character and objectives.. dont just sound low and frustrated you need to show and let it out naturally. ya know?
